    connection: Stop forcing some ports to prefer IPv6
    
    Stop forcing all non-SOCKSPorts to prefer IPv6 exit connections.
    Instead, prefer IPv6 connections by default, but allow users to change
    their configs using the "NoPreferIPv6" port flag.
    
    Fixes bug 33608; bugfix on 0.4.3.1-alpha.
